Abstract
The invention relates to a flattening roll, comprising a fixed shaft (1) which is mounted at both ends and extends in an arc shape, and a roll sleeve (2) supported on the shaft (1). The design is simplified by the fact that the roller sleeve (2) is mounted rotatably, is made of a flexible material and is supported on the shaft (1) by means of a lubricating fluid film (3).
Description
The invention relates to a flattening roll having a stationary shaft which is mounted at both ends and extends in an arc and a roll shell which is supported on the shaft.
Such rollers are used in particular in machines for guiding a web of material and in this case spread the web over the width in order to thereby achieve a wrinkle-free operation.
This is of particular importance when producing and/or refining paper, cardboard, tissue or other fibrous webs.
For this purpose, known flattening rolls are usually composed of a plurality of segments which rotate and are arranged next to one another on a shaft. These nip rolls are described, for example, in DE 60021923T 2, DE 69825899T 2 or in WO 2004/083661. Between these sections there is a seal as protection against the ingress of moisture. Alternatively, the sections can also be covered with a cover, for example made of plastic, rubber or a material combination.
The coupling between the sections is realized here by means of a cap or by means of a connector.
This design is very costly and prone to failure.
The object of the invention is therefore to simplify the design of the flattening roller and also to make it as strong as possible.
The object is achieved according to the invention in that the roller sleeve is mounted rotatably, is made of a flexible material and is supported on the shaft via a lubricating fluid film.
This results in a roller construction which is significantly simplified and therefore less prone to failure. This is due to the reduced number of components required, in particular the claimed components such as bearings, connectors or seals.
Only the roller shell rotates. In order to achieve this with as low friction as possible, the roller sleeve is supported on the shaft via a fluid film over a substantial part of its axial extension, preferably over its entire axial extension.
For this purpose, the lubricating oil in the central lubricating oil supply is particularly preferred as the lubricating fluid, but compressed air cushions are also conceivable.
To enable the formation of a fluid film circumferentially, the shaft has a plurality of axially spaced fluid inlets into the fluid film. It is thereby possible without problems to ensure that a fluid film with a thickness of between 0.1 and 5mm is achieved.
In order to minimize the costs for the fluid supply, the fluid inlet is supplied with the same lubricating fluid as the bearings of the shaft.
Since the shaft does not rotate, its support is also simplified. But such a bearing should still be able to adjust the position of the shaft and thereby its arc in the circumferential direction. This allows the width flattening effect to be better adapted to the specific requirements.
In order to further simplify the design and to stabilize the fluid film, the bearing of the shaft has a seal for the lubricating fluid gap between the shaft and the roller sleeve.
The rotation of the roller sleeve can be produced by the material web itself or by coupling the roller sleeve to a drive.
Due to the continuous deformation of the roller sleeve during rotation, the roller sleeve is made of plastic, preferably polyurethane or rubber, and has, as far as possible, reinforcing elements, such as fibers, fabrics, etc.
The sliding of the sleeve on the fluid film can be supported by a smooth inner side of the sleeve.
However, it may also be advantageous to design the inner side of the roller shell to be corrugated or to be corrugated. In particular, the axially extending grooves may support the formation of a fluid film and/or stabilize the fluid film by entraining the fluid.
In a preferred embodiment, however, the inner side of the roller shell can also have other axially protruding structural elements. The structural elements, such as trenches or the like, need not extend completely parallel to the axis. The structural element as an axial projection can be provided, for example, with at least one groove extending helically on the inside of the roller shell. The helically running groove can form one or more turns in the axial extension of the sleeve. But it may also extend less than a full turn in other embodiments. A plurality of such structural elements is usually provided on the inside of the roll shell.
In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the fixed shaft is designed as a single piece. In this case, the one-piece design means that the shaft does not consist of a plurality of roller sections arranged over the length of the shaft. The outside of the shaft on which the roll mantle is supported is continuous over the entire length of the shaft, however, for example, openings for fluid inlets may be provided.
This preferred embodiment is particularly advantageous. The shaft is constituted by one member and does not rotate. The simplicity of this design has significantly reduced the likelihood of failure. The sleeve is the only rotating component. The roller sleeve runs directly, i.e. lubricated only by a fluid film, on the shaft of one-piece design. No other components are connected between e.g. the roll sections. This further simplifies the design and also further reduces the likelihood of failure.
Furthermore, it can be provided that the fixed shaft or at least the shaft part supporting the roller shell is made of metal, for example steel.
The opening of the fluid inlet preferably has an extension in the circumferential direction of the roll which is smaller than the diameter of the roll.
For example, the fluid inlet can be designed as a bore in the roller, wherein the diameter of the bore is less than 10%, in particular less than 5%, of the roller diameter.
The invention is further illustrated below with reference to examples. In the drawings:
FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a flattening roll and
fig. 2 shows a corresponding cross section.
The flattening roller has according to fig. 1 an arcuately extending shaft 1 made of steel, which has a central supply line 8 for a lubricating fluid, typically oil or compressed air. The two ends of the shaft 1 are each held in a fixed bearing 5.
But the bearing 5 allows the position of the shaft 1 in the circumferential direction to be adjusted.
Between the bearings 5 there is a roller sleeve 2 rotating around the shaft 1, which is supported on the shaft 1 by a lubricating fluid film 3.
Due to the arc-shaped shape of the shaft 1, the roll mantle 2 is continuously deformed during rotation. The roller shell 2 is therefore made of flexible plastic, preferably polyurethane or rubber, and has a reinforcing element 6, here in the form of a fabric.
The roller shell 2 can be rotated directly by an external drive, but can also co-operate with the fibrous web by friction.
For a reliable and low-friction guidance of the roller sleeve 2, it is supported over its entire axial extension on the shaft 1 by a fluid film 3. The radial thickness of the fluid film 3 is between 0.05mm and 5mm, in particular between 0.1 and 5 mm.
In order to ensure that the fluid film 3 is formed as circumferentially as possible, the shaft 1 has a plurality of axially spaced fluid inlets 4 which are connected to a central supply line 8. At the same time, the bearings 5 are also supplied with lubricating fluid via the feed line 8.
For the sake of simplicity of construction, the bearings 5 also each have a sealing unit for the lubricating fluid gap between the shaft 1 and the roll jacket 2. The lubricating fluid can also be led away by the sealing unit in order to create a lubricating fluid circulation.
As shown in fig. 2, the inside of the sleeve 2 has axially extending grooves 7, which are similar in cross-section to a saw-tooth profile. Thereby, transport of the lubricating fluid into the load-bearing area can be supported.
